i believe bigotry is kind of mental illness which is hard to treat.
Whether that is true or not you are still mistaken when you claim everyone who disagrees with Islam (most of the world) is a bigot. That is what every crackpot who ever invented one of the bizarre faiths of history had to say to explain why most rejected him. It is probably true many times but continuously claiming it is a cop-out. If I suspect bias I prove it or try very hard to I don't just yell at anyone who does not agree. There is also delusion and mental illness in defending something that should not be.
Spain and teached Europe science in the time Europe was sleeping and underdeveloped and living in what called the dark ages , you brought Israel as to be more civilized and more powerful in our world and then the history of the Islamic empire is nothing compared to what Israel had achieved and contributed to our world.
Well you stated a bunch of arbitrary claims but I have no idea why.
An unbiased history professors will agree that muslims are the foundation of our modern science and not Israel.
I have studied world history for over 40 years and serve on two civil war round tables. I also have a degree in Mathematics and 190 semester hours in engineering and physics and can state without the slightest fear of being wrong Muslims are not the foundation of science or math in modern times nor ever really were. You are right to say the Catholics plunged science into a dark hole and ruined Europe for a period of time and that the Muslims at that time did make progress but they did so only because they retained Greek and Roman learning and added a little to it when the rest of the West was standing still. However the West came back and out did anything the Muslims ever accomplished. In medicine the Muslims might have made a bigger impact but were still not the founders.
Here are a few lists selected at random. Compare how many Christians and Jews appear on them all to Muslims.

100 Scientists Who Shaped World History
I typed in greatest scientists in history and picked the first 3 so don't even start the bias stuff. It is your claims that are extremely biased here.
Islamic science spread to Western Europe and survived. By the 1100's, translations of Arabic texts were making their way from Muslim Spain into European universities. These Arab texts stimulated the growth of Western science, which is the dominant scientific tradition today. We should never lose sight of the fact that our own science today rests squarely on the accomplishments of Muslim science, which, as a result, is still very much alive.
There is very little truth to any of this. Yes they added some, no they did not make most of the great break throughs and formation of laws. It can easily be argued that Isaac Newton and Einstein accomplished more themselves than all the Muslims in science combined.
I have a math degree and know very well what Muslims did and it is not nearly as substantial as Christianity and Jews have accomplished.
My challenge to you was what prophet Mohammed did and how he converted one community from ignorance to the most powerful and advanced empire.
I have no problem admitting Muhammad was a descent military leader and united a bunch of ignorant tribes into a less ignorant whole, but even as a military leader he is not nearly as impressive as Cortez, Genghis Kahn, Caesar, Alexander, Sparta, etc.... If you start of at the bottom you can't help but go up. However he was a terrible prophet and was exceeding sinful.
While i brought to you prostitution and aultery which was completely eliminated from the community,your reply was a disgraceful one such as your saying it to be kind of oppression on women and the Muta marriage.
No I did not. I asked why and how it was done and the oppression of women was only one of even many good motivations I mentioned yet because of bias you have singled out that one and it was only a question not an argument. No he did not eliminate prostitution. It still exists and he appears to have made it Holy by changing its name and circumstances a little.
Muta marriage is very rare and it is the way for atheists in the muslim world to legalize their prostitution as according to Islamic law women should be protected by a contract to ensure their rights.
Atheists did not invent it nor practice it when it was invented. They might do so now as parts of Islam have finally given up the practice (others still use it). However in Muhammad's day it was common and many companions are said to have practiced it. I ask you again what did Muhammad do to eliminate prostitution (even though it still exists in the middle East)?
Prostitution in nowadays are done for free,men ****** women and fetch for a new love or by few dollars they can hire one and then they can have one every night.
I have no idea what this means.
Some countries are trying to manage prostitution for health matters and not for caring about women's integrity.
Ok, what does that mean or prove.
I have no disagreement. The US has been influenced so much by secularism since 1960 that we have really lost our moral roots in many areas. Why are we comparing the US to anyone?
What you said here is really laughable and shows your blatant ignorance.
Which even if it was true you did not show. However the lists I provided do show that your views about science are very biased.
Prophet Mohammed protected women's right till his last days on earth.
If you call killing them for writing poetry and stripping them of rights then fine.
His last speech to humanity is to care about woman and to fear god on treating them,not to make business out of them as the situation of nowadays
Instead of YOUTUBE (for God's sake) I will provide scholarship that is well referenced and reviewed.
Didyou knowthat:
A Muslim man in Iran cut off his 7-year-old daughters head because he suspected she had been raped by her uncle?1
Many little Muslim girls have their genitals cut out without anesthesia in order to destroy their sexuality and make them "pure"? 2
Daughter and wife beating are routine in the Muslim world. Over 90 percent of Pakistani wives, for instance, have been struck, beaten, or abused sexually for offenses like cooking an unsatisfactory meal, or for failing to give birth to a male child?3
In Iran the legal age for marriage is nine years old, and in an Afghan refugee camp virtually all the girls over second grade were married?4
Women who are raped in Muslim countries often end up being punished while the rapist gets off free?5
All a man has to do to divorce his wife is say, "I divorce you" three times and then she is a single woman without support and without her children, who are usually taken by the father?6

[FONT=Times New Roman,Times New Roman]The only that Islam did for women was add things they could not do like voting, driving, inheritance, for God sakes polygamy was honorable in the Quran where it was punished in the Bible.
